The Giant Nordic Stratus Tipi offers the perfect setting for a laid back bohemian or island style wedding. Tipis are durable and versatile so can suit anywhere from a grassy headland, beach or backyard. Picture the full moon over Shag Rock with an open air dance floor covered by festoon lights. It is an experience quite like no other.

North Stradbroke Island is one of very few locations in Australia where events can be held right on the sand. Home Beach at Point Lookout is a northern facing beach protected from most strong wind and swell, providing stunning conditions for most of the year. Headland Park offers a great alternative to the sand with views down Main Beach.

The unique and sensitive location can come with its challenges and these packages have been put together to take the stress out of planning a tipi wedding on Straddie.

FAQ

Additional GuestsAdditional guests may be added to each package. Based on the final guest numbers and style of reception additional tipis may also be required to ensure adequate space. Chat to the SIE team about your guest numbers so we can ensure pricing is made clear if additional marquees are needed.

BondA $500 security bond is required on all bookings. The bond must be no later than 30 days prior to your wedding day. It will be refunded within 7 days following your event; pending there are no breakages, damages or breach of terms and conditions.

CateringDue to the unique nature of a beach wedding not every caterer is suited to this event type. We have aligned with the caterers we recommend as they are capable of handling the unique environment on the beach.

CurfewAll guests must be offsite by midnight. Our venue package allows for an 8-hour reception, which can be extended but can go no later than 12am. Last drinks at the bar are always 30 minutes prior to the finish of the reception.

Live MusicLive music is the perfect way to create amazing vibe and get the dance floor going. We have some amazing muso’s we can recommend. If you wish to book another vendor we can talk them through how a beach event works and ensure they have the right equipment to be able to work in this environment. Please keep in mind we need to be aware of your plans for entertainment to ensure we have suitable space (e.g. a 5 piece band needs considerable room as well as a dance floor).

StylingWhen we first connect we will ask you to describe to us the style you love and the overall look and feel you wish to create. If you have a Pintrest board or images you can provide us to help understand the look you love this is always very helpful. We will then put together a mood board for you to ensure what we are working towards aligns with your vision.

TransportBuses can be organised if accommodation is not within walking distance of the venue. Pricing varies depending on the amount of passengers, pricing starts from $150 per hour for an 11 seater and $250 for a 50 seater.



Venue

Do you recommend floor matting?Floor matting under the tipi provides a nice clean surface for your guests to get around on as well as looking good in photos. Keep in mind if on the beach the matting is still on soft sand so guests with mobility issues will still struggle to get around easily.

How do you determine number of tipis needed?The number of tipis required is based on the number of guests, whether it is a sit down or cocktail style event and taking into consideration any other elements we need to keep undercover in the event of bad weather such as bar, kitchen, cocktail furniture and dance floor. In some instances we may only need to add a smaller tipi to cover the bar or dance floor. Each event is different so it’s best to chat with the team once we know numbers and desired layout so we can make appropriate suggestions.

Guests with mobility issues. The beach tipi is not suited to guests with mobility issues. The soft sand can be hard going and guests will be walking in it from the moment the ceremony begins, until they depart at the end of the reception.

Wait Staff & Security As the venue is set up in a public space we must have staff onsite at all times from the time the structure goes up to comply with insurance and Redland City Councils regulations. The wait staff on the night will serve drinks, manage the venue and keep it tidy as well as troubleshoot any issues should they arise. A security guard stays the night before and the night of the event to ensure it is is kept safe and wards off theft and vandals.

WeatherOur tipis have the ability to be closed from various angles to protect against wet weather and wind. If in the event of predicted strong winds we can explore the idea of relocating the structure to another location prior to the beginning of construction. It can be wise to have a back up venue booked if in the case of extreme weather.

Don'tTo preserve the beautiful natural environment on North Stradbroke Island we ask that NO Balloons, rice, confetti, or single use plastic bottles or straws to be used.
